3 for 3!!


I DID IT AGAIN!

This past weekend I went three for three for sub 24 hour finishes at the Vermont 100 Mile Endurance Run.
I finished in a time of 23:27, my second fastest 100 mile time, just 8 minutes shy of a 100 mile and course pr.
In finishing, I also finished my 10th run of 100 miles or more, adding me to the 1,000 Mile Club.

A HUGE thank you to all of the volunteers out on the course, including my excellent crew in Sarah and Mike and the superb pacing of Steve!!

Reports, Photos and VIDEO to come soon.. let me get it all together. You know it'll be all right.

  4. Congratulations on an impressive run!

    The conditions out on the course were pretty tough with the shoe sucking/sticking mud, but clearly you had no difficulty with this challenge.

    It was also very thoughtful of you to hang out at the finish line while super slow runners came across the line...I was one of them just barely squeaking out a sub-30 hour finish.

    Take care,
    Tammy

  5. Hey Sherpa John:

    I was part of Nova Scota
    Dave's crew in the VMT. 100 miler. Although I have been a road runner for years, Vmt was such an amazing experience that I can't wait to get my feet good and dirty on some trails. Dave's pacer Ray is now looking for a 50 miler that he can do soon so that they can return to Vmt next year and run the whole distance together. Do you know about something in West virginia that's run at night?

    See you next year: you ultra guys rock!!
